Notes.

MILWAUKEE. April 2S.-A romantic dis
covery of hidden treasure in the cellar of a
house on the South side came to light to-
day. The fortunate gamers by the find are
the family of Henry j. Peters, an old resi-
dent of this city, who died nearly year
ago at the age of about so years. Peters,
who for many years kept a grocery and sa-
loon at the corner OF First avenue and Scott
street, was niggardly in his habits. was al
ways miserably dressed and bore the repu-
tatlon OF being a miSer. When on his death
bed he declined to make will or give his
wife accurate information as to his affairs.
but told her that after his death she would
lind that he had lett plenty for herself and
children. After the old mans death the
house was ransacked from top to bottom.
but no signs of money, bonds or securities
OF any kind were found Months went by
ami the heirs were inclined to give up hope,
when, one day recently. an accident Oc-
Cured which led to happy result. The
sewer under the house became clOgged and
Workmen were engaged to remedy the
trouble. On taking mp the flooring of the
cellar preparatory to their work the men
came across heavy box securely locked
and too pOnderous to be easily moved. On
opening the chest it was found to be filled
with gold coin, dollars. eagles and foreign
money. to the aggregate of nearly $40, 900.
The probate judge was Immediately noti-
fed of the find. The family, comprising a
widow and three children. are now living
in comfortable circumstances. Peters had
been resident of Milwaukee for twenty
tve years.

Cardinal Manning ON Labor.

LONDON, April 2S.-Next Saturdays
ssue of the Tablet will contain a special
article by Cardinal Manning, in which he
will contend that unless the rights of labor
can be denied the liberty of organization to
protect them and the freedom founded
upon them cannot be denied. Towards the
end of the last century, the cardinal says,
the doctrines of political economy, under the
plea of free contract, broke up the old rela-
tions between the employer and tine EN-
ployed, and the conflict between capital and
labor then became perpetual. The power
of capital is i'll but irresistible, for labor
must work for the bread of life. Hunger
lays the necessity upon them of laboring
for the sake of their homes and themselves.
When the law ceased to intervene organiza-
tionS for mutual defense straightway arise.
The Knights of Labor and: the British
trades unions represent the rights of labor
and the rights of association for its defense.
The conflict between capital and labor is
most unusual. The freedom of contract on
which political economy glorifes itself
hardly exists. 1t is purely the church's
Office to protect the poor and to protect
their labor, which has built up the human
commonwealth

HE SEES THE INDIANS.
Gladstone Visits the Wild West
Show and Makes a Speech.

d speech
LONDON. April 2s.-Gladstone and wife
visited the grounds of the American exhibi-
ton and the camp of the Wild West show.
A special performance was given for their
entertainment. They were much i'm
pressed by the Aboriginees. Gladstone sat
and looked on with every evidence of child
like delight. After the performance he
was introduced to the Indian Red Shirt.
Gladstone spoke to him at length, and
asked him whether he noticed any differ
ence between the English and Americans
or if he regarded them as brethren. Red
Shirt replied that he didn't notice much
about brotherhood" The 1.500 workmen
employed at the exhibition grounds cheered
for Gladstone and home-rule. Gladstone
bowed repeatedly in answer to the salu-
tiOns. Gladstone entertained at lunch the
managers of the exhibition. Col. Russell.
OF Boston, presided. Gladstone, replying
to toast to his health, said among other
things:
The institutions and progress of the United
States have always been subjects of great in
terest to me ever since very many years ago,
when 1 studied the life of Washington. be-
came then aware, first, of the magnitude of
the destiny reserved for Americans, and,
second. of the fact that the period of the
birth of the American states was of more in-
terest than any other possible to study.
Whenever youth, desirous of studying poit-
ical life, consults me respecting a course Of
study in the field of history, l always refer
him to the early history of America. God
Almighty made the Englishmen and Ameri-
cans kinsmen, and they ought to have affec-
tfon for one another. If they had not, hui
manity would cry shame upon them. rejoice
that the clouds which once obscured our
mutual vision have almost vanished from

Curious Statistics Regarding the

Curious Statistics Regarding the
Amount of Material Used in Their
Issue.
HARTFORD, Conn.,, April 2S.-During
the exercises in memory of Gen. Grant last
evening, the following curious statistics in
regard to the manufacture of the personal
memoirs of Gen. Grant were read:
''In binding the cloth books there was A.
$50 square yards of cloth used, or if put in
one piece it would make strip one yard
wide and twenty-five and oue-tifth miles long
The gold used in stamping, lettering, etc., or
all styles of binding. ii coined, would make
S15,446.47. The price paid the gold-beater for
this gold was S21 $3.50. There were 376 bar
rels of binder paste used, weighing about
$4,000 pounds. There was 1882 sheepskins
used, 1921 goatskins and 13S alfskins. AS
none of these skins were split, it rep
resents, of course, the killing of an equal
numter of animals. There were about 302,-
210 reams of paper used in the printing,
which weighed about ], ,S13, $50 pounds. or 906%
tons. This, put into one piece, would make
a strip ten feet wide and 1,6S2ss miles long.
If the books were piled up in one row, the
narrowest way-that is, the same as they
would stand in a bookcase--it would take
shelf nineteen and one-half miles long to
hold them. If the pages of the books were
joined together it would make strip of paper
six inches wide and G, 6,T291a miles long. Forty
one steam presses were working day and
night, over 1000 operatives were employed
and over 5000 agents engaged in distributing
the book. To these latter, who were mainly
old soldiers and the widows of soldiers, was
paid in commissions for the selling of the
book considerably more than S1,000,000 in
cash.

MILWAUKEE, April 2s.-The will of
Alexander Mitchell the deceased banker
and railroad magnate, has been read in pri-
vate to his family. 1t has not yet been filed
for probate, and may not be placed before
the public in its entirety for some time to
come. The law permits the filing of wills
within thirty days after the death of the
testator. The following beQuests have
however, been made public: Protestant

CORK, April 2S.-Hon. Capt. Plunket.
resident magistrate of Cork, has been in-
structed by the government to keep close
watch over all circumstances attending the
departure of William U'Brien on his way to
Canada to inaugurate campaign against
the governor general, the Marquis of Lans-

treatment of his Irish tenants. United
Ireland says:
No blacker deed of treachery was ever
committed than that Lord Lansdowne has
been guilty of. Black as hell are Lord Lans-
downes unutterable treachery and malgniUy.
He stood in awe of American opinion, but
tore the agreement he had made with his
tenants into shreds the moment he was led to
believe by Canadians with Irish names that
he could rely on Irish-Canadian compliance

HURON, OAK, April 2s.-The presence
of several prominent Democrats here within
the past week gives strength to the report
that Ezra W. Miller, receiver of the United
States land Office for the Huron district is
likely to succeed Judge Palmer. Mr.
Miller when approached on the subject
gives no information, but it is generally
understood that his friends will urge his ap-
pointment. Mr.. Miller is lawer of expe-
rience and has excellent political backing in
the East as well as Northwest. Judge
Palmer's time will not expire for a year, but
he Lmay resign any day, and it is quite
certain if change is made in the near
future that Mr. Miller will receive the ap-
pointment.
